INSTRUCTIONS
This recipe has only 3 tablespoons of sugar! From Reader's Digest, Great
Recipes for Good Health --
For variety, fill muffins with a small piece of cheese, a prune, or 1/2 tsp
chopped raisins instead of the jam.
Preheat oven to 375 F. Using one large or two small muffin pans, lightly
coat 12 2 1/2-inch cups with non-stick cooking spray or use paper liners
and no spray.
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
Melt margarine in small saucepan over moderate heat. Combine in a small
bowl with buttermilk, then beat in the egg with a fork. Add the mixture to
the dry ingredients, stirring only enough to moisten.
Spoon half the batter evenly into the muffin cups. With the back of a
spoon, make a shallow indentation in the batter in each muffin cup, then
spoon 1 tsp jam into each one. Top with the remaining batter, spreading to
cover the filling.
Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
Makes 12 muffins. 149 calories, 5 g fat. Only 12 calories added sugar.
